“BimaPe aims to build a hub for all kinds of insurance products where users can seamlessly manage their family’s insurance without any hurdles. We will be utilising the amount raised to develop our product further, strengthen the team and also invest in paid user acquisition for our product .”
Commenting on the investment, Harsha Kumar, General Partner at Lightspeed India Partners said,

BimaPe’s emphasis on building a product to guide users to make better insurance decisions has driven strong word of mouth in an otherwise CAC intensive market.”
“Insurance is a priority for everyone, and we are delighted to be one of the investors in BimaPe. BimaPe aspires to let working professionals in India put their family’s insurance on autopilot, and we passionately believe that they will be a game-changer in the growing insurtech space,” added Bipin Shah, Partner at Titan Capital.

The platform also plans to soon integrate with Account Aggregator, Health Stack, and insurance companies to fetch policy documents on behalf of users and provide them with a personalised purchase experience. In seven months since launching its beta product, BimaPe claims to have boarded over 12,000 users without any paid marketing .
